Commit 246e87a9 ("memcg: fix get_scan_count() for small targets") sought to avoid high reclaim priorities for memcg by forcing it to scan a minimum amount of pages when lru_pages >> priority yielded nothing. This was done at a time when reclaim decisions like dirty throttling were tied to the priority level. Nowadays, the only meaningful thing still tied to priority dropping below DEF_PRIORITY - 2 is gating whether laptop_mode=1 is generally allowed to write. But that is from an era where direct reclaim was still allowed to call ->writepage, and kswapd nowadays avoids writes until it's scanned every clean page in the system. Potential changes to how quick sc->may_writepage could trigger are of little concern. Remove the force_scan stuff, as well as the ugly multi-pass target calculation that it necessitated.
